When someone says, “podcasts changed my life”, you listen. That’s exactly what we talk about in this Content Matterz episode.  Mark Metry, an important voice for social anxiety and mental health was a featured guest on the Entrepreneur Perspectives podcast. You can listen to both his episodes here: Social Anxiety, Bullying, and Meditation How Podcasts Saved My Life Clearly, we like podcasts. So hearing this story about how podcasts changed Mark’s life piqued our interest in many ways. I talk about how audio (podcasts and audible books) had an impact on me before, during, and after building KazSource (and still today).  Mark shares a story of listening to The Tim Ferris Show when Tim Ferris talked about being suicidal in college — Mark at the time he heard that story was suicidal in college. Listening to this episode and thousands more changed Mark’s life — saved Mark’s life.

Sometimes it has nothing to do with the return. And sometimes, the return is far greater than anything you could have ever imagined! In case you haven’t noticed, we love podcasts. In fact, yeah, you should have one. We’ll even build it for you. A podcast that is.
